We have found that organizers rarely speak to people outside our own circles or “silos” and therefore don’t develop the relationships that can nurture a broad movement for social justice. Rather than examine the things that divide us, lets understand and learn from one another.

SPEED MENTORING We took time for organizers who want to mentor others and for organizers looking for mentors to connect

Sponsored by the National Organizers Alliance (see: www.noacentral.org) and an organizing committee (in formation).

Organizers from Los Angeles and Long Beach came together for 2 day Basic Organizer training. 9/16-17/2011. The Filipino Migrant Center co-hosted the training with NOA. For info about mentoring cohort there, contact Mary Ochs via info@noacentral.org.
